Retrieve PDB (default), PDBML, or mmCIF file(s) for specified pdb identifier(s) and return path(s). Downloaded files will be stored in local PDB folder, if one is set using pathPDBFolder(), and copied into folder, if specified by the user. If no destination folder is specified, files will be saved in the current working directory. If compressed is False, decompressed files will be copied into folder. format keyword argument can be used to retrieve PDBML and mmCIF files: format='cif' will fetch an mmCIF file, and format='xml' will fetch a PDBML file. If PDBML header file is desired, noatom=True argument will do the job.
